Detol Mildew remover in a green spray trigger bottle Morrissons for £4.

Will clear your mildew and make your westy roof look like new in seconds :ok

Use a towel to mask off your canvas as it contains a bleech.

Oh, and don't wear you favourite VW T-shirt either :oops:

Also check the seal on your skylight. I replaced mine and no more mildew.

I used a mild vinegar solution with a little after-save in it to hide the vinegar smell.
I don't know where I am, but I'm having a lovely time!
